When one electron goes to each atom during the breaking of a covalent bond.
1 of 9
DEFINE: Structural Isomers
Isomers that have the same MOLECULAR formula but different STRUCTURALl formula
2 of 9
DEFINE: Stereoisomers
Isomers that have the same MOLECULAR formula but different ARRANGEMENT in space.
3 of 9
DEFINE: Radical
A species with an unpaired electron.
4 of 9
State two features of some molecules that enable them to show E/Z isomerism.
1) C=C double bond 2) Each carbon in the double bond is bonded to two different atoms/groups.
5 of 9
Name the stages that allow two molecules to react in a catalytic converter.
1) Adsorption: molecules absorbed unto surface. 2)Reaction: The bonds weaken & reaction occurs. 3) Desorption
6 of 9
What happens within a CO2 molecule when it absorbs infrared radiation.
C=O bond vibrates more
7 of 9
Give two examples of Carbon capture and Storage.
1) Its injected deep into the ocean/sea. 2)Stored in old gas fields.
8 of 9
State two benefits (other than cost) of using enzymes to catalyse reactions
1)Reduces CO2 emission by burning less FF for energy. 2)Greater Etom Economy
